"Excellent hot or cold. And yes, it does take 10 lemons."

1/4 cup chicken broth (I use low salt bouillon)
2 lemons, thinly sliced
Minced fresh parsley

Remove chicken and pat dry. Reserving 2 tablespoons of the marinade. Set aside.

Put flour, paprika, pepper and salt in plastic bag and shake until well mixed. Put one chicken breast at a time in the flour and shake to coat.
